In the UK Piers Morgan is a well known arse and we are happy that he prefers to live in the states instead of on our violent little island . He is what we call a **** stirrer as he gives the pot a shake to see what floats to the top , the best thing to do is ignore him .
As in the video our problem is violent crime but its mainly the sort you get in town centers after the bars have shut , idiots who can,t handle drink . A few years back our far sighted no i mean short sighted government decided to bring in 24 hour opening times for bars , a la Europe . The hope was that allowing people longer to drink meant they were less likely to rush down 10 pints before closing time at 11pm and stagger about causing trouble. Well i don,t need to explain what happens when you allow a country that has a drinking habit like ours longer to drink . So our average town centers are at best to be treated with caution during the early hours in order to avoid drunks .
As a species we are naturally violent and we live in a violent society ,we are gready , vain and sadisitic and i see very little hope that that will change . We have caused far more injusticies than we can ever hope to right .
As we are meant to be friends i will tell you what our two governments do to our friends . Diego Garcia is a US military base in the Indian ocean and the island that its on is a British colony with a local population , its position makes it handy for bombing raids on the middle east and Asia . We removed the inhabitants years ago and packed them off to another island .During the Iraq war Tony Blairs government whilst using his so called ethical foreign policy , past a law that stripped the people of Diego Garcia of any rights to their island . Only recently have the law courts overturned this , they discribed Tony Blairs act as the most despicable act performed by a British government . The truth is that whilst liberating Iraq the British government disowned the people of Diego Garcia of their home , a very shameful act by a government and where was this in the press , i guess they couldn.t hack that phone .
Don,t trust your government do not listen to the biased press and don,t let people stir you up . Pete
